sweet navel lightning

Sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we're gonna throw them dice
I know that it's crazy, a baby's a baby
And there's a million born every day
But here we are stallin' when nature is callin'
Checkin' our emotional state

Oh, do we have the patience to give?
Will we have the clearness of mind?
Oh, sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we're gonna throw them dice

Remember your mama, oh, she was a trauma
How she used to get so upset
Remember your papa, so uptight and proper
There's so much now that he must regret
Ooh, they tried to teach you their truth
But you couldn't feel it inside

Oh, sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Oh, sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, come on now, we're gonna roll them dice
Now how will we reach him? And what will we teach him?
There's so much we don't comprehend
Will all of our hoping just settle for coping
Or will our spirits meet in the end?
Ooh, I want to help him break through
But sometimes I just can't see the light

Oh, sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Oh, sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we're gonna roll them dice
Oh, come on now, come on now, we're gonna roll them dice
Ooh
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, come on now, we're gonna roll them dice
Ooh, sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Ooh, sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, come on now, we're gonna roll them dice
